Stand Up Speak Out

Stand Up, Speak Out Founded by 4-time Emmy nominee Producer/songwriter Jill Nesi, Stand Up and Speak Out (SUSO) is committed to raising awareness about the bullying epidemic around the world by building connection and empathy through the arts. Her Song, a musical about the lasting impact that bullying and mean behavior can have on children, highlights the severity of an issue that many of our children face. The Showcase version of the musical, which is performed throughout communities for students and the public at large, addresses the lasting effects that exclusion and negativity can have, and informs kids about ways in which they can stand up and speak out together. SUSO partners with leading state, national, and global institutions to braid the arts with best practices on social and emotional skills building to help young people lead in building a more connected and empathic world.
